Voodoo Doll
I have been writing poetry, fiction and short stories for many years and have completed a book of poems. I also enjoy comedy writing.
I have a voodoo doll that I can make do stuff.
If I slice it with a razor it will make your skin cut.
If I spin its head around your neck will break.
If I shake it rapidly it will make where you stand quake.
If I bend a finger on my voodoo doll you will feel that same pain.
If I pour water on my doll, you will get rain.
If I don’t want you to see anymore I will pluck its button eyes out.
If I want you to shut up I will stitch close its mouth.
I can make you dance like an idiot if I dangle my doll on strings
I can make your nerves hurt if I stick it with pins
If I need you to fall in love with me I will kiss the voodoo doll
But if I roll it you will slip and break your hip when you fall
But wait, there is much more I can do
If I light the doll on fire it will burn, but so will you.
My voodoo doll can represent anyone I chose
A lawyer, a doctor, a president or a musician singing the blues.
So before you cross me just remember this
I am the powerful shaman whom will make you seize to exist.
